I enjoy traveling and taking pictures. By encountering different cultures and relating them to my own cultural background, it helps me observe and understand things from different perspectives.
I'm also a cat lover and enjoying having trees. We have three cats at home. It surprising to me how many political behaviors our cats exhibit as a social group, especially given claims that they lack social dynamics. My fir tree is waiting for its 8th Christmas this winter. Updated from last year, I got some peaches (not yet for hazelnuts and walnuts) from my trees this year!
